Pros

Mission and vision are great - the teachers and staff are great and truly care about the impact on students

Cons

Leadership in the region has shifted significantly, and the current environment feels increasingly unhealthy. Communication style is often perceived as condescending and dismissive, particularly toward staff who are not at the executive level. Feedback that differs from their perspective does not appear to be welcome, and there is a noticeable pattern in which individuals who challenge or question decisions experience stalled growth, promotions, or reduced recognition. The close working relationship between regional and C-suite contributes to hesitation around raising concerns. Additionally, there has been direction discouraging staff from engaging HR for support, which further limits safe avenues for resolution. These dynamics have created an atmosphere where many employees feel unsupported and cautious about speaking openly. Prospective employees should carefully consider whether this leadership style aligns with the type of culture they are seeking.

Pros

The people here are so enjoyable to work with. Smart, down-to-earth, mission-oriented. Work-life balance is also strong and has attributed to me staying so long.

Cons

Lean teams can often mean wearing many hats and not being able to specialize/hone skills as sharply because of it
